Usually, that means opening a lot of tabs, running manual scrapers, and then copy-pasting results into a spreadsheet or a CRM. It's a repetitive cycle of clicking and waiting that breaks your focus. With this Connector, you just tell your AI agent to do it. It connects to your Hexomatic account so you can trigger existing recipes or build new ones through a simple, natural conversation. You can ask your agent to run a specific lead generation flow, check if the data came back correctly, or even look into the logs if a step failed. It takes the manual heavy lifting out of data collection and moves the work into a conversational flow. Because it's hosted on the Vinkius catalog, you can plug it into your existing setup and start managing your automation library immediately. Instead of hunting through a dashboard for specific IDs or status toggles, you just talk to your agent. It handles the API calls and logic behind the scenes, letting you focus on what to do with the data once it's actually in your hands. You get a direct line to your automation data without the friction of a web interface. ## Tools ### get_workflow_results Pull the output data from a finished workflow run.
